Emotional avoidance is anything you do to make an emotion go away or become less intense. We all avoid at some point but what if it starts to interfere with our daily life?

Read in Anxiety and Depression Association of America - ADAA about the five ways we avoid uncomfortable emotions by Dr. Kevin Chapman, author of 'Mastering Our Emotions':

From time to time it is quite normal to avoid a situation, person, place, or thing that might trigger an undesirable emotion, but when it interferes with your daily functioning and/or becomes a problematic recurring issue, it is clinically defined as emotional avoidance. Fortunately, emotional avoid...

Can we really trust God with our wounds?

Fear and shame can lead us to mishandle and hide our brokenness and insecurities from God and others. How can we instead believe in our belovedness and embrace our vulnerabilities as an opportunity to experience Godā€™s delight in us?

In this episode, host Jay Y. Kim speaks with Michael John Cusick, CEO and founder of Restoring the Soul, a Denver-based intensive counseling ministry. He's also the author of 'Sacred Attachment.'

Partnering with God in a regular practice of Sabbath can help renew our hearts to perceive his voice, counter the demands of our productivity-driven culture, and reinvigorate the meaning of our work.

Hey friends, it's cover reveal day for my new book, Mid-Faith Crisis! What do you think? (I gasped when I saw it.)

The book comes out on June 3. It's not about my life with Jack, or about autism (although I tell the story of our Spelling journey in the epilogue). Rather, it's about wrestling with faith--something which I am all-too familiar with. I wrote it with my good pal Catherine McNiel over Zoom. Yes, Zoom is good for something... I'll tell you more about it all in the months to come. But for now, you can read our endorsements and pre-order the book on Amazon.
